Recruiting information

We support the world’s energy supply chains.

Japan is an island nation that lacks its own energy resources and thus is dependent on foreign sources for energy supplies.
Specialized vessels are harnessed to transport resources from various countries.
We serve as shipbrokers that facilitate the chartering of vessels for conveying such resources by sea.

We coordinate supply operations by connecting Charterers, such as oil companies and trading firms involved in the transportation of oil and natural resources, with Shipowners that operate suitable vessels. We also provide services for the international operations of such vessels.

Market freight rates for vessels are constantly changing and can fluctuate by hundreds of millions of yen in the course of just a few hours.
We propose and arrange optimal measures while constantly acquiring up-to-date market information and keeping an eye on the size, position, and timing of each vessel.

Our role is so vital that it would not be an exaggeration to suggest that we are the foundation that holds up the lifelines of the world.

Charterers Primarily consisting of oil companies, trading firms, and other major companies that wish to transport next-generation energy, crude oil, and petroleum products.

Shipowners: Companies that own vessels.
Shipowners can be found in various countries and regions, including Japan, the United Kingdom (London), Norway, Singapore, Hong Kong, China, Taiwan, South Korea, Greece, Italy, the United States, and India.

◆Typical workflow

Example: We’d like you to arrange transportation of two million barrels of crude oil to Japan for us, next month. Do you have a suitable tanker that we can use? We select suitable Shipowners (vessels) and present them to the client, taking into consideration the client’s conditions and budget.

・Formulate a charter plan according to the request.

・Ask Shipowners for a tanker that is right for the plan.
